Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Draven

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Draven

Paying attention to last hitting with Siphoning Strike will have a large impact at the end of a game.

If you're solo, Spirit Fire is a great way to farm a lane. It can be bad if you're in a lane with 2 and you push too far. Find the right balance between Siphoning Strike last hits and AoE farming.

If you have low defenses, people will focus you down even during your ultimate. Try buying some survivability items even in your DPS builds.

Advice to Understand How Draven Will Play

If Draven doesn't move, Spinning Axe will fall near his present location. It will fall directly on him, or just to the right or left.

If Draven does move after attacking, Spinning Axe will lead him in the direction of his movement. Use this to control where the Spinning Axe will go.

Overall, Nasus sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Draven. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Draven helps Nasus perform poorer in competitive League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Nasus is an ally to Draven, he observes a little drop in his complete damage dealt. This change may demonstrate that Draven does not help cover for him to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Nasus is played together with Draven on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Draven.

Additionally, when Nasus plays with Draven on the same side, he typically takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Draven does a decent job of covering Nasus during teamfights.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Draven?

There is no perfect synergy for Nasus that will no matter what be his top synergy. However, Draven is a very typical teammate for Nasus. By playing on the same team as Nasus, he lowers their win rate by -0.9% to 49.4%. This signals that there is not really a strong bond between Nasus and Draven that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Draven has a greater difficulty than Nasus. That means Nasus players should be cautious when finding Draven allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to work well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by grouping Nasus and Draven together, you will not be granting your other teammates a lot of magic damage. Plan to bring other champs on your team that offsets this gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Draven ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
